5 Tips to Making Fitness fun for Kids

I did The Color Run earlier this year and had a lot of fun. So much so I signed up to do it again; only this time I invited the family. The kids were really looking forward to it. We’ve participated in a lot of charity run/walks but nothing like this.

Getting close to the starting line.

She is not a morning person.

I’m mean why not right?

Bubbles changed her mood immediately.

Babe, our daughter, our son and our niece; headed to the first color station.

Even though she was on her Dad’s back most of the time apparently she worked up a thirst.

Coming into the home stretch we had to take advantage of the scene.

We are done and it was time to party. The kids were anxious to jump in the mix and get more color.

Without question it was a party.

She never gets tired of her Daddy tossing her in the air.

The Shout station helped blow off some of the color. hahahaha This was hilarious to watch.

5 Tips to Making Fitness fun for Kids

1. Do outside of the box activities
2. Do it as a family
3. Sign up for the fun runs, they are all the rage and they support amazing charities. Double win!
4. Don’t be a drill Sargent
5. Wear fun outfits

Our next fun fitness activity for the kids is a trip to Ripley’s Believe It or Not!, Ripley’s is now located at the Baltimore Inner Harbor. They have over 15,000 square feet of the odd and weird world of Ripley’s Believe It or Not! where truth is stranger than fiction. You can see a real shrunken head, Hogwarts Castle made of matchsticks and much much more! Along with incredible artifacts and artwork from all around the world and over 100 “interactive” take a ride on our 4D Moving Theater and get lost in our Marvelous Mirror Maze. You can also take home your very own wax hand that you create. Ripley’s has been proudly freaking out families for over 90 years. Why just say it, See it!

Now will have them running around and having a good time.
